This is a proposed Change for Fedora Linux. This document represents a proposed Change. As part of the Changes process, proposals are publicly announced in order to receive community feedback. This proposal will only be implemented if approved by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee. == Summary == Recent Firefox desktop file (firefox.desktop) does not comply with DBus/Gnome search provider rules thus Firefox can't provide DBus Gnome search service. We should change Firefox desktop file from firefox.desktop to org.mozilla.firefox.desktop. == Owner == * Name: [[User:stransky| Martin Stransky]] * Email: <stran...@redhat.com> == Detailed Description == Firefox needs to provide desktop file in expected format to pair DBus service and Gnome search service together to make Gnome search service work. == Feedback == == Benefit to Fedora == We'll fix already broken feature. == Scope == * Proposal owners: Desktop file name is changed in Firefox 121.0. * Other developers: Fedora Workstation needs update Firefox desktop name (hardcoded in gnome-shell) to correctly place Firefox to Gnome taskbar as default application. * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #Releng issue number] No need to coordinate with rel-eng. * Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change) * Alignment with Community Initiatives: == Upgrade/compatibility impact == Should not impact. == How To Test == 1) Open Firefox 2) Type something to Gnome search 3) It works Test also KDE/Plasma it doesn't crash (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2017123) == User Experience == Enabled Gnome shell search provider for Firefox. == Dependencies == None == Contingency Plan == * Revert desktop file name change in Firefox package. * Blocks release?
